1.1 Introduction
Outline
1.1
Introduction
MotoPlus Software Development Kit (SDK) is used to develop customer
specific applications that operate on the main CPU board of the Motoman
robot controller. The application is run concurrently to the robot firmware,
in real time. Programming of the application is done using C language

1.4 Notes
Notes
NOTE
• C language allows for dynamic memory operations.
When programming in C language, pointers with memory
addresses may be used. If the pointer variable is set
incorrectly, the system memory area may be rewritten.
If the system memory area is rewritten, critical problems
occur, e.g., the software hangs up (the hang-up status is
detected by a CPU exception or the watchdog check
function, then the servo power turns OFF and the system
shuts down), the robot stops its operation due to an
alarm, or the programming pendant becomes inoperable.
If the system memory operation is incorrect, the
application itself may not operate as it is designed.
• The task “mpUsrRoot”, which starts when the power is
turned ON, has a high priority to start other application
tasks and initialize the entire application quickly. Due to
its high task priority, if a time-consuming process (0.1
milliseconds or longer) is done in this task, the processing
time for the robot control becomes insufficient. Then
system alarms may occur or the programming pendant or
the HOLD button may freeze. Thus, as shown in the
sample program (refer to Task Control Sample Program”
in “Programmer’s Manual for New Language
Environment MotoPlus”, make sure to complete the task
“mpUsrRoot” after starting up another application or
creating a semaphore.
• Debugging via Telnet
1.After completing debugging, set the Telnet function to
INVALID (S2C1119 = 0). This is because the Telnet
function consumes system processing time, and an alarm
may occur due to insufficient processing time for robot
operation.
2. With the Telnet function, debug only tasks with normal
priority. For debugging the tasks with high priority (the
tasks started with the task priority:
MP_PRI_IO_CLK_TAKE, MP_PRI_IP_CLK_TAKE, or
MP_TIME_CRITICAL, or task “mpUsrRoot”), use the
robot variables visible on the programming pendant. This
is because, if printf() or puts() is done with a high priority
task, processing time for robot operation control is
consumed, and a system alarm may occur due to
insufficient processing time.
3. After completing debugging, make sure to disable the
debugging code using printf() or puts(). This is because
the processing time of printf() and puts() influences the
system, and an error may occur such as insufficient
processing time during robot operation.
4. When using VxWorks SHELL commands, which become
available by connecting with the controller via Telnet, a
system alarm may occur due to insufficient processing
time for robot operation. Do NOT use the VxWorks
SHELL commands.

3.1 Rules for Application Source Code
Creating MotoPlus Application
3.1
Rules for Application Source Code
Be sure to observe the following rules when creating source code.
Refer to the MotoPlus Programmer's manual for detailed information on
programming configuration and sample programs.
NOTE
Sample source code files are located in your installation
directory and on the MotoPlus for Visual Studio installation
disc.
Please remember that the source code should follow ANSI-C syntax. The
only exception is that users should not define a "main (...)" function. This is
replaced by "mpUsrRoot(...)".
1. Up to 32 one-byte characters can be used for a file name. Up to 16
two-byte characters can also be used. File names are case-sensitive.
Set '.c' as the file extension. (C++ library is not fully supported on the
MotoPlus platform)
2. Put "#include <MotoPlus.h>' at the top of each source code file. When
"MotoPlus.h" is included, all services provided by MotoPlus are
available.
3. MotoPlus applications do not have a "main" function. This is replaced
by "mpUsrRoot". This function must have the following signature:

void mpUsrRoot (int arg1, int arg2, int arg3, int arg4, int arg5, int arg6,
int arg7, int arg8, int arg9, int arg10)
4. mpExitUsrRoot must be called at the end of mpUsrRoot.
5. The task "mpUsrRoot" is launched at a high task priority. Due to its
high task priority, if a time-consuming process (0.1 milliseconds or
longer) is done in this task, the processing time for the robot control
becomes insufficient. This can interrupt robot startup and freeze the
pendant. Therefore, you should immediately launch a new normal
priority task from mpUsrRoot and then call mpExitUsrRoot.
NOTE
When creating a new MotoPlus project in Visual Studio, a
"main" template is automatically generated.

3.4 Creating a MotoPlus Library
Creating a MotoPlus Library
As a MotoPlus developer, you can share routines by distributing a
compiled MotoPlus library. This library can be used by other developers
without exposing proprietary source code. Instead of building an
executable module (.out), this will build a library without the main entry
point for execution.
NOTE
MotoPlus library files end in extension .mpLib (DX100),
.fsLib (FS100), and .dnLib (DX200). Libraries must be
compiled for each controller separately.
A MotoPlus library is created in the same manner as a MotoPlus project.
From the New Project window, select the MotoPlusLibrary wizard.

Using a MotoPlus Library In Your Project
MotoPlus library files can be added to your project like any other file.
Right-click the project tree and select {Add} > {Existing Item…}.
The library developer should have also provided a header file with the
declarations for all public functions in the library. Each declaration should
begin with "extern". Example:
extern void mpLibraryFunction1();
If your application is targeted toward multiple controller platforms, you
must add a library for each controller type. When building the project, the
compiler will ignore libraries which are targeted for a different controller
platform.
NOTE
MotoPlus library files end in extension .mpLib (DX100),
.fsLib (FS100), and .dnLib (DX200).

3.7 Building Your Project for Multiple Controller Platforms
Building Your Project for Multiple Controller Platforms
The MotoPlus for Visual Studio SDK allows you to build your source code
for each of the MotoPlus-enabled Motoman robot controllers. This allows
you to use the same source code project for each controller. However,
there are minor differences between each controller which may affect your
application. For example, the Network Inputs I/O addresses start at
#25010 for DX100 and FS100. However, the starting address is #27010
on the DX200.
For this reason, the build environment has been configured to
automatically provide a pre-processor definition for each controller type.
Using preprocessor directives, you can put a decision statement around
your code at compile-time, instead of run-time.
Example:
//evaluated at compile-time
#if (DX100 || FS100)
#define STARTING_NETIN_ADDRESS
25010
#elif (DX200)
#define STARTING_NETIN_ADDRESS
27010
#endif
void myFunction()
{
//set at run-time
int startingIoAddress = STARTING_NETIN_ADDRESS;
}
NOTE
You must have a license key for each target controller
platform. Upgrade licenses are available for each controller
type.

Start-up of Application Program
When the controller is turned ON, the application program is loaded
automatically and started.
<Limitations>
• Only one “*.out” file can be loaded. Thus, install only one application. If two or more applications are installed, the alarm 1020:
“MOTOPLUS APPLICATION LOAD ERROR [1]” occurs on loading.
The error status can be checked by reading $B051 from the job.
• The loadable memory size is up to 2 Mbyte as the total of the code
area and the static memory area. If it is more than 2 Mbyte, the
start-up fails and the alarm 1020: “MOTOPLUS APPLICATION
LOAD ERROR [4]” occurs on loading. The error status can be
checked by reading $B051 from the job.
$B051
4.3
0: The application is loaded successfully on start-up.
1: The number of files exceeds the limit. 
2: The memory is insufficient. (Available memory area is
less than 2 Mbyte.) 
3: APPLICATION folder cannot be found in the CF. 
4: The size of the MotoPlus application exceeds the limit.
To Temporarily Prevent MotoPlus Application from Starting
Due to a problem of the application program, the system may hang up
during robot operation, and then the controller may not start normally. For
recovery, it is necessary to start the controller normally while preventing
the application program from operating. In this case, it is necessary to
start the controller in the MAINTENANCE mode, change the settings so
that the application program does not operate, start the controller
normally, and operate the robot. Follow one of the following two
procedures:
1. Start the controller in the MAINTENANCE mode, set the security mode
to the MANAGEMENT MODE. Select “MotoPlus APL.”, then
“DELETE (DX)” to delete the application.
2. Start the controller in the MAINTENANCE mode, set the security mode
to the MANAGEMENT MODE. Select “MotoPlus APL.”, then
“MotoPlus FUNC. SETTING” to show the setting window. Then set
“APPLI. AUTOSTART AT POWER ON” to “DISABLE”.
If the above problem occurs during robot operation, choose the procedure
2. The above problem during robot operation may be caused by a specific
condition. If the MotoPlus application is deleted with the procedure 1,
after the specific condition is cleared, the MotoPlus application must be
loaded again in the CF for recovery. In this case, if the application to be
loaded does not exist there, the application cannot operate and the
system cannot recover.

6.1 Debugging Environment
Debugging
6.1
Debugging Environment
Due to the nature of the real-time robotic system, MotoPlus applications
cannot be debugged using a traditional source-level debugger. The most
effective way to debug a MotoPlus application is to monitor application
output. This is done by setting variables and I/O to view on the pendant, or
by printing to standard output (stdout) within your application.
Print-statements sent to stdout can be viewed by using one of two
methods. On DX robot controllers, your SDK comes with a VGA adapter
cable to connect a standard computer monitor to the robot controller.
Alternatively, you can connect to the robot via telnet to view output within a
console window on your PC.
NOTE
6.2
Print-statements are extremely time consuming during
execution. It is highly recommended to put a debug-switch
around all print statements so that they can be disabled for
final release.
Commands for Printing to Standard-output (stdout)
The commands "puts" and "printf" are available to print to stdout. The
command “puts” will print a string and automatically append a new line.
The command “printf” is used to print a formatted string with variable
arguments. The line-feed is not automatically appended to printf strings.
6.3
Viewing Output on Computer Monitor
(DX100 and DX200 only)
Please see Section 2.3.1 “Install VGA Adapter Cable for Debugging” on
page 2-3 for instructions on installing the VGA adapter cable included with
the SDK.
To view output using the monitor, the monitor must be connected prior to
turning on the robot controller. If the monitor is blank, please cycle power
on the DX robot controller.

Setup of Robot Controller
Please see Section 2.4 “Enable Telnet for Debugging” on page 2-7 for
instructions on enabling the Windows Telnet Client in Windows 7.
Set robot parameter S2C1119 = 2 to enable telnet output. The robot must
be rebooted after setting this parameter.
NOTE
When debugging is completed, be sure to set S2C1119 = 0.
This will prevent the telnet task from interfering with robot
operation.
Connect your development PC to the robot controller LAN port via
Ethernet connection.

Establishing Telnet Connection
•
Your computer IP address must be on the same subnet
as the robot controller.
– Example:
Robot IP - 192.168.255.1
Computer IP - 192.168.255.xxx
NOTE
•
Alarms such as "0500 SEGMENT PROC NOT READY"
may occur when using the telnet connection. This is
because the telnet task runs at a high priority in the
system and can interfere with robot operation. If the
alarm occurs, reboot the robot controller.
– Set S2C1119 = 0 when you are done debugging to
prevent these alarms during normal operation.
6.4.2.1 Automatic Login to Telnet Shell
(DX200 and FS100)
On the DX200 and FS100 controller, an automatic login utility is provided
with the MotoPlus for Visual Studio installation. This is accessed from the
START menu under Motoman \ MotoPlus Debugging.
Prior to opening the automatic login utility, you must input the IP address
of the robot controller. An .ini configuration file is located in your MotoPlus
for Visual Studio installation directory. (Default: C:\Program Files
(x86)\Yaskawa\MotoPlus for Visual Studio\Telnet Debugging)
Open the .ini file for your target controller. Modify the value of "ipaddress"
to match your robot controller. After saving this file, you can now open the
automatic login utility.
After opening the automatic login utility, do not click any other windows
until the login process is complete. The process is completed when you
see the telnet shell prompt "->".

"Run…" command in the START menu.
START > Run… > Type "cmd"
Type "telnet" to open the Windows Telnet Client utility. Then type "open

8.1 Visual Studio MakeFile Project
Advanced mpBuilder Usage
mpBuilder is the compile system utilized by MotoPlus for Visual Studio.
This section describes the advanced usage for the build system. This
should only be modified by experienced developers.
8.1
Visual Studio MakeFile Project
When select a MotoPlus Project from the New Project menu, the wizard is
creating a Visual Studio MakeFile project. This project type in Visual
Studio issues a command line call to a custom compiler.
The Build Command Line command can be viewed under {Project} >
{Properties} > {Configuration properties} > {NMake}.
The default build command is:
mpbuilder.exe -c $(Configuration) -p "$(ProjectDir)\"
-n "$(ProjectName)" -b "$(OutDir)\" -o build
The default clean command is:
mpbuilder.exe -c $(Configuration) -p "$(ProjectDir)\"
-n "$(ProjectName)" -b "$(OutDir)\" -o clean
The fields $(…) are Microsoft macros for MSBuild. These are
documented online on the MSDN website.

8.1 Visual Studio MakeFile Project
Using the $(…) syntax, you can also insert any system Environment
Variables into the command line. Example: $(MP_VS_Install) evaluates to
the MotoPlus installation directory.
The default commands do not use all of the available command-line
arguments for mpBuilder. Here is a list of all available arguments:
• -c, --controller
Required. Target Yaskawa Motoman robot
controller platform. DX100, DX200, FS100
• -p, --projectFolder
project.
Required. Root folder for the MotoPlus 
• -n, --projectName
Required. Name of your MotoPlus project.
• -o, --operation
Required. Build operation to perform.
'build' = Build Project. 'clean' = Delete output files. 'rebuild' = Clean
then build.
• -b, --binaryLocation
Path to the output binary. If this is not 
specified, it will default to [ProjectDir]\output.
• -i, --includeDir
This is the path to the standard includedirectory for your MotoPlus API header files. If this is not specified, it
will default to [InstallDir]\[Controller]\inc.
• -e, --encoding
The character encoding of your source
files. Example: "us-ascii" or "utf-8". A list of supported encodings
can be found in the Microsoft documentation for EncodingInfo.Name
• -l, --library
'Y' if you are building a MotoPlus Library
file. 'N' if you are building a .out Executable module.
• -d, --dontParseErrors
'T' (true) if you want to see the unmodified
error/warning strings returned from the compiler. Otherwise, they
will be parsed and formated to be recognized by Visual Studio.
• -v, --visualStudioVersion Must be specified for VS2008 (v=9).
Ignored for Visual Studio 2010 - 2013.

8.2 Compiler Arguments
Compiler Arguments
The specific compiler will vary based on which robot controller is selected.
The proper one is selected based on the arguments specified for
mpBuilder. Regardless of which controller is selected, the final compiler
will be part of the GCC build system.
The arguments for the GCC build system are specified in the .mps files,
which are automatically added to your MotoPlus for Visual Studio project.
NOTE
8.2.1
Please see the GCC documentation for all available
arguments to the build system.
CompilerArguments.mps
This file is used when compiling source files into binary objects. This can
be used to control many variables in the build system.
• Project-wide DEFINE statements
• Enable/disable particular errors and warnings
• Compiler code optimization (not recommended)
• Directories to search for include-files for the project
There are macros which can be placed in the .mps file which will be
recognized by mpBuilder and resolved prior to calling the compiler.
• ~ProjectDir~ : This will resolved to the temporary directory where the
source files are copied and converted to ascii encoding at build time.
• ~IncludeDir~ : This is the standard include directory to search for
MotoPlus API header files. If the -i argument is specified to
mpBuilder.exe, then this macro will resolve to the value of the -i
argument. Otherwise, it will default to 
[MP_VS_Install]\[Controller]\inc
• ~FilePath~ : This will resolve to the full path of the source file being
compiled. Please note that it will point to the ascii copy of the source
file, located in the temp directory.
